Cultural Weekend in Nairobi

For over 3 years the Nairobi National Museum has been under construction. Recently it re-opened and Tia, Dana and I decided to go check it out! There was an excellent photo exhibit as well as an interesting variety of exhibits related to animals in Kenya, the creation of life, arts/artefacts, etc.

If anyone has seen the movie Madagascar- doesn't this look like Marty?

We also decided to check out the modern art museum's new digs (RaMoMa) and it was absolutely fabulous! Will have to go there again as we got there with 10 minutes to closing and had to scan through the place... but it is a must see.


Am off next week to Uganda (for rafting) and Rwanda (to see the gorillas!)- Really looking forward to all of it :)
